Sitting there across from you
The distance between us grows
And invisible wall, built thick and tough
Tears fall behind my eyes
Stain my broken heart
To know you care so much
Yet you're the reason I messed up
So much I want to say to you
My pain and scars revealed
To know you try so hard
And in the end still fail
Seems to be my fault
I should try to make this work
Not make you my excuse
But you've planted seeds
Roots of pain that won't stop growing
You talk to me like a child
Explain to me the way life is
But I already know betrayal
I've felt pain and fear and anger
The wall comes crashing down
You hold me close and talk to me
But all I want to do is cry
You're the reason I am the way I am
I despise you for it
Yet how can I when you seem to care
I feel so guilty for how I feel
To despise someone I truly love
How could I possibly explain this to you?
